Celebrating Labor Day

Sunday, September 3 (Labor Day Weekend), is a Holy Day of sorts for all of us.  We know that Labor Day is a civic holiday to celebrate the opportunity for work and the contribution of the Labor Movement to life in our nation.  As Lutheran Christians we go deeper with this and view all work as part of God’s calling and of his provision of our daily bread.  All Christians are doing the work of God, regardless of where or what they do in their honorable vocation in life.

Wear What You Wear for Work or School

To celebrate this blessing of vocation we will be taking the Sunday of Labor Day weekend to give thanks for the blessings of daily bread, of work, of school, of family, etc.  To enhance our time together you are invited to wear the clothes or uniform of your current or pre-retirement vocation. Younger folks are encouraged to dress in the manner of those who work in your aspired for vocation or as the younger folks do for school in their current day.  On Sunday, September 3, we will take time to give thanks for all which God calls and equips us to do.
